Calling all Duelists:
Join us October 18th for our first Genesys Tournament!
Test both your deckbuilding knowledge and dueling prowess with this new format.
What is Genesys?
Genesys is the new format created by Konami to bring back the world of Yu-Gi-Oh before Pendulums, but with a twist:
– Pendulums and Link Monsters are banned from Genesys and the traditional Forbidden & Limited card list is not in effect
– Instead deck construction uses a points system, with the total point value a deck being set by a tournament organizer
– A full list of pointed cards can be found here.
Entry Fee: $10.00 (OTS Packs with Entry) Registration: 12:00pm & Gameplay: 1:00pm Format: Genesys 100 Points Rounds: Best of 3 Games, Swiss 50min. Matches Prizes: Guaranteed 2 Boxes into the prize pool. *Additional Prize Packs based on attendance*

OUTSIDE FOOD & DRINK:
Outside Food and Drink is welcomed. However, we do ask that guests clean up after themselves and keep Food and Drink away from games in progress.
RULES QUESTIONS:
At any point in the game, a player may call a judge for assistance with a ruling or interaction. The judge will not be able to issue you any advice about the game state or what decisions you should make.
TRADING:
While trading is fine, please note that buying/selling items with anyone other than Cool Stuff Games staff (or soliciting to do so elsewhere) is against both our rules and the law. Doing so may result in both the buyer and the seller being removed from the property, both being permanently banned from returning and/or the police being notified.
Cool Stuff Games also reserves the right to limit the amount of space being occupied by any one individual while trading, and does not allow the use of suitcases, handcarts, luggage carts, etc. to be used for the purpose of transporting excessive amounts of trade stock.
CODE OF CONDUCT:
All food & drink must be kept off the tables except for where signage says otherwise.
Horseplay, roughhousing, rude/disrespectful/discourteous behavior, and foul language are not permitted.
Report any lost or unattended item(s) to a Cool Stuff Games staff member.
Most importantly, HAVE FUN!
EVENT QUESTIONS & CONCERNS:
Feel free to contact us through Facebook Messenger. We want your experience to be as enjoyable as possible, and will do our best to assist you in any way that we can.
If you have any suggestions on how to make this event more enjoyable, or discover an issue that was not covered, please speak to the Tournament Organizer (TO) or a sales associate in-store, and they’ll be happy to assist you.
